    • Investigating the mechanism of acoustically activated uptake of drugs from Pluronic micelles 

      Husseini, Ghaleb; Runyan, Christopher M.; Pitt, William G. (BioMed Central (BMC), 2002)
      Background: This paper examines the mechanism of ultrasonic enhanced drug delivery from Pluronic micelles. In previous publications by our group, fluorescently labeled Pluronic was shown to penetrate HL-60 cells with and ...
    • Over-Pressure Suppresses Ultrasonic-Induced Drug Uptake 

      Stringham, S. Briant; Viskovska, Maria A.; Richardson, Eric S.; Ohmine, Seiga; Husseini, Ghaleb; Murray, Byron K.; Pitt, William G. (Elseviser, 2008)
      Ultrasound (US) is used to enhance and target delivery of drugs and genes to cancer tissues. The present study further examines the role of acoustic cavitation in US-induced permeabilization of cell membranes and subsequent ...
    • Targeting Breast Cancer Using Hyaluronic Acid-Conjugated Liposomes Triggered with Ultrasound 

      Ben-Daya, Mohamed; Paul, Vinod; Awad, Nahid S.; AlSawaftah, Nour Majdi; Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Husseini, Ghaleb (American Science Publishers, 2021)
      The successful targeting of tumors can be achieved by conjugating targeting moieties to nanoparticles. These modifications allow nannocarriers to achieve greater targeting specificity through binding to specific receptors ...
